[QUOTE="nellpilgrim, post: 45726, member: 6546"] Hi Tim, All the advice above is great. The thing is now you know your 'soft spots' and that's a good thing. Greasing up your feet whether it's with Vaseline, Vicks or Compeed stick does feel a little weird, but its sort of counter intuitive- trust us it really works. Other tip:- Wearing socks, or if you wear liners then liner socks, inside out stops the seams becoming hot spots (if you are a 'chunky chicken' this principle also works with underwear sorry if that's TMI! :oops: ) When we were walking my walking partner would shout "Free the the Camino Ten" and that was a signal for boots and socks off time. There's nothing better than getting those boots off and wriggling your toes.....bliss! Nell (aka one of the 'Blister Sisters') [/QUOTE]
